Paradise season 2 is officially in full production swing — and we just got a first look at how Sterling K. Brown is faring this time around.
The hit Hulu drama is in the middle of filming a new installment, and the show's creator Dan Fogelman is giving viewers a taste of what's to come for Secret Service agent Xavier Collins next season. As he shared in a surprise photo on Instagram on April 15, Sterling (who plays Collins on Paradise) is back on set and getting into the thick of portraying the character. And if that wasn't enough, the photo Dan shared featured Sterling filming a scene that has him looking a bit worse for wear.
"Season Two not playing around #Paradise @sterlingkbrown," he cryptically wrote alongside the image in the caption.
Given how Sterling has developed a legion of followers with his role on Paradise, seeing him looking battered caused fear for his character's wellbeing online.
"Sterling is THE STAR!! Y’all better leave that man alone!!" one person exclaimed in the comments. "Is @sterlingkbrown the greatest actor alive today or just the greatest actor period?" another noted. "NOT THE SNEAK PEAK🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥," a different follower added.
Now, it's hard to tell if this first look at Paradise season 2 will become part of a bigger plot line for the show. But fans need not worry, because the show's official Instagram also shared how Sterling is doing while filming the upcoming season.
As the show's social team posted a number of behind-the-scenes moments with the former This Is Us star, it was clear there's a lot more to come for Sterling on Paradise season 2.
"Sterling K. Brown is back on set for season 2! 😮💨," the caption read on April 16. "You ABSolutely need to swipe."
We certainly can't wait after seeing this!
